Don't you see that similar things could be said of Paul? The difference is that we have a severe lack of information to go by when assessing the reliability of what a 2000-year-old man said about his own experiences.
With Joseph Smith, we have a much clearer picture.
Are you not just making an appeal to ignorance???
